Hello folks, new member but longtime lurker.
I just got the iPhone 3G and have been using it to listen to music on my commute. I currently have a set of UE SF5pros that are ~2 yrs old and have been very happy with them. But I'm looking for a little more bass (which is the 'fun' part), and not happy with the distortion that comes with setting the EQ to anything other than 'off'.
From reading a few threads here, I came to the conclusion that the FS M5s matched my needs. I'm not looking for an IEM that is analytical (had a set of Etys) but are fun to listen to and can make me enjoy the commute. (not sure anything can really do that)
I ordered a set from SoundEarphones and they'll arrive on thursday. But I was just able to demo the SF5EBs for a bit and I was impressed by how much bass there was! While there was some notable differences in the treble and soundstage from my SF5pros, I could live with it because I enjoyed listening to the music that much more.
How about the SA6s? I've read some great reviews, but are they more analytical than fun? The price difference is not a factor for me, I figured anything that I could use daily to make the commute better would be worth it's weight in gold.
TIA for any advice!
